Usage Note
Virtualmente can mean 'for all practical purposes' (virtualmente imposible, virtually impossible) or, in modern usage, 'in a digital/online environment' (se reunieron virtualmente, they met virtually). Learners should note that context decides which meaning is active — the digital sense is a recent borrowing from English.
Examples
"El proyecto estaba virtualmente terminado."
